▌ Editor's read iD Tech has been operating for 25 years, indicating significant experience in youth tech education (iD Tech 'About Us' page). The camp maintains a low staff-to-student ratio of 1:10, which suggests individualized attention for participants (iD Tech 'Why iD Tech' page). They explicitly state that all staff undergo background checks, enhancing safety measures (iD Tech 'Safety' page). The program focuses on teaching Roblox Studio for game design, specifically creating 'Obby' games, and is offered at numerous university campuses across the US (Course page and 'Locations' page). While ACA accreditation is not mentioned, the company's long history and detailed safety protocols are positive indicators.
Who thrives here Ages 7–9
Roblox Game Design Camp fits middle-elementary campers — old enough for skill-building to land, young enough that friend-group dynamics and counselor warmth still matter more than program rigor. Parents at this age band tend to prioritize a balanced rhythm of structured activity and unstructured play, which is the actual differentiator inside any given stem program.

Frequently asked about Roblox Game Design Camp
- What ages does Roblox Game Design Camp accept?
- Roblox Game Design Camp is open to children ages 7–9. Camps publish their own age cutoffs, and some run mixed-age groups internally; check the registration page for that summer's grouping if your child sits at a boundary.
- What is Roblox Game Design Camp's staff-to-camper ratio?
- Roblox Game Design Camp publishes a 1:12 staff-to-camper ratio. ACA recommends roughly 1:6 for ages 4-5, 1:8 for 6-8, 1:10 for 9-14, and 1:12 for 15-18 in day camps; tighter ratios than recommended usually signal more attentive supervision but can also reflect smaller program scale.
- Who runs Roblox Game Design Camp?
- Roblox Game Design Camp is operated by a private business, with 25 years of operating history. The operator type matters for tuition policy (refunds, financial aid eligibility) and for what kind of staff training pipeline the camp uses.
- Does Roblox Game Design Camp provide lunch?
- Roblox Game Design Camp does not include lunch — campers bring their own. Most day camps without provided lunch are nut-free or nut-aware, so check the allergy policy before packing. Frozen water bottles double as ice packs and drinks; insulated lunch boxes hold below 40°F for about four hours.
- Does Roblox Game Design Camp offer financial aid?
- Yes — Roblox Game Design Camp offers financial aid or scholarships. Most camp aid is need-based, application-based, and awarded on a rolling basis until funds are exhausted, so apply as soon as the form opens (usually January-February for the upcoming summer).
- Is Roblox Game Design Camp eligible for Dependent Care FSA reimbursement?
- Yes — Roblox Game Design Camp qualifies for Dependent Care FSA / 401(k) Dependent Care reimbursement under IRS rules covering work-enabling childcare for kids under 13. Save the camp's W-9 / EIN; you'll need it for the IRS Form 2441 filing in April.
